Christmas at home in Palo Alto.
Christmas this year will be remembered by:
-a fun Christmas Eve spent with our dear friends, the Asays. Yummy food, Janet's beautifully decorated house and table, fun group games, doing the navity with all the kids.
-reading the "The Night Before Christmas" right before going to bed.
-feeling more excited about Christmas than ever before. I had no idea as a kid that my parents were actually more excited and having more fun than I was.
-doing the countdown and running down our hall to the living room (in keeping with tradition...hopefully someday we'll have stairs)
-watching Jack rip open the trampoline and seeing Jordan's look of pure delight when she saw the kitchen and opened the food
-eating pizza and root bear by the tree Christmas Day night
-delivering cookies to a few friends "secretly" Jack loved it and thought it was so cool to sneak away.
-Jordan's chocolate covered face after eating chocolate ice cream bonbons.
-dancing in the kitchen with the kids
Sorry for the late posts! Better late than never, right? I guess this means I don't have to post for another couple of months :)

What a fun December and Christmas. I love all of the pictures. Jordan's birthday party was awesome. Every little girls dream I imagine..to dress up and be princeses. I can't believe you made those little tutus! They were so cute. Jordan looks so tall compared to those other girls. I think it will be fun to stay home for Christmas sometime. Thanks for the post. It's okay if you don't do it that often; it's way fun to see pictures whenever! Love ya
Oh Holly! Thanks for posting. I can't believe how Jordan has changed. Her hair is so long. I can't believe you can put it in such cute piggy tails. Their tutu's were darling and the party looked so fun. I wish Savannah could have been there to celebrate too. I can't believe all our babies are two! Your Christmas sounded like a great time. I loved all the little traditions you did - especially running down the hall. It sounded fun to have Christmas eve dinner and stuff at your friends too. Love ya.
What fun posts! Jordan's birthday party looks so fun and cute. You made the tu-tu's? I might have to call for instructions, they look so- professional! She is growing up and I am so envious of her darling blonde long hair! Something Heidi will never have. Jack is growing too, Brandon says- he looks tall. I love the trampoline. If you can't have a big one, a little one is the next best thing! Great job! Love to see pictures of what's going on.
Holly! Thanks for the posting the pictures! It looks like you had a wonderful Christmas! I loved hearing all about your fun times and seeing those beautiful kids. Jordon's birthday pictures are so darling. Jordan Dolly is just another Holly Dolly! Her hair is so cute and I love the tutu's!
